"It's better than nothing..." is probably the most annoying lament ever utter by man. It is a suckers famous last words. My dad always said... "You can't fire me, I QUIT!" was the suckers famous last words. But I think if he were still around today he would agree with my rebuke of the FOMO generation and their cling to "better than nothing" mentality. But I digress.

Nothing is greater than nothing. It's greater than all of the matter in the Universe, there is enough nothing ahead of the Universe to allow the universe to travel through the cosmos for another eternity, while leaving behind a vast swath of Nothing in it's wake since the dawn of time. What's better than that?

So the UK in their quest to drag the West into a full out war with Russia over a Ukraine a lawless shithole ran by Oligarchs and International grifters hell bent on helping the western commies launder uncontrolled amounts of money back into Communist campaigns to overthrow and stage a coup against democracies and republics around the world. The UK has a Dragon Fire laser weapon that isn't even 70% ready. They are so dead set on defeating Putin, that they are planning on deploying the weapon to Ukraine. They know it's not ready, they even gush about it not being ready. It's not even 70% ready.
But Goddamn it, IT'S BETTER THAN NOTHING!

I wonder how a 70% ready, freaking laser beam, will measure up against hyper sonic tungsten slugs?
